'Looksmaxxer' influencer Clavicular shares update with horrific injuries after 'overdosing' on live stream
Clavicular, the controversial "looksmaxxer" influencer, has provided an update after being rushed to the hospital following a suspected overdose during a live stream.
On Tuesday night (April 14), the 20-year-old's live stream abruptly ended while he was in Miami, meeting fans at a local shopping mall.
According to TMZ, during the broadcast, the streamer, whose real name is Braden Eric Peters, appeared visibly unwell and repeatedly expressed his discomfort.
"I’m trying my best to lock in but I’m a little destroyed right now… Holy s*** dude, I’m trying my best but I’m f***ing destroyed right now… Holy f***," he said.
As the stream progressed, Clavicular continued to struggle. He told a fan: "I’m absolutely gone," and added: "Let me go sit somewhere… where’s somewhere I can go sit down for a sec? Oh my god, f***ing hell."
He was eventually helped upstairs to a restaurant by friends, where he sat in a booth. Fellow influencer Androgenic asked him: "How f***ed are you?" to which Clavicular responded: "I’m gone."
Moments later, Androgenic offered him "an Addy (Adderall)," before the footage abruptly cut off.
Emergency audio later obtained revealed friends calling for help, reporting a "20-year-old male overdose".
Clavicular's Statement After Hospitalization
On Wednesday (April 15), Clavicular provided an update on his X (formerly Twitter) page.
He shared an image of himself next to the caption: "Just got home, that was brutal.. All of the substances are just a cope trying to feel neurotypical while being in public, but obviously that isn’t a real solution.
"The worst part of tonight was my face descending from the life support mask," he added.
The Influencer's Controversial Social Media Presence
This incident comes shortly after Clavicular's appearance on 60 Minutes Australia, where his extreme looksmaxxing practices were scrutinized.
The trend, which encourages young men to change their appearance through potentially dangerous methods, has faced sharp criticism from medical professionals.
During the interview, Clavicular rejected any association with the incel (involuntary celibate) community, a group often linked to toxic online subcultures.
"Looksmaxxing is self-improvement, right? So it’s about potentially ascending out of that category, and so that would be one of the goals, to disassociate from being an incel and overcome that," he said.
However, the interview took a tense turn when the streamer was pressed on his relationship with controversial figures like Andrew Tate.
When asked: "You’ve obviously shared company with Andrew Tate and other, dare I say, rather controversial figures, why do you spend time with people like that?" he responded: "All right, have a nice day," before walking off, accusing the reporter of trying to make the interview political.
Clavicular has been open about his use of steroids and other extreme practices in pursuit of his appearance.
He revealed that he started using anabolic steroids at the age of 14, ordering testosterone and fat dissolvers on the internet and refining his vision by altering pictures of himself using Photoshop.
He claims his parents eventually gave up trying to intervene, realizing that "there was nothing that they could do to stop my ascension," per The Guardian.
His pursuit of physical transformation led to his expulsion from college after he was caught in possession of testosterone.
Now, Peters' goals have escalated to undergoing double jaw surgery. For those seeking more affordable facial enhancements, he has controversially endorsed the practice of "bone smashing" - using a hammer to alter facial bones, or even a fist for a more intense approach.
"Bone smashing is legit," he said during an interview with conservative podcaster Michael Knowles.
It's important to note that medical experts strongly warn against such practices, as they can cause serious, irreversible harm.
